There's a few things here that aren't on most of the boards I visit. Have you found them? We're working on bringing some fun add-ons to this site.

-We have the quotes, which are obviously on the forums home page. Did you know though that you can submit quotes? And you don't just have to submit "famous" quotes. If you find something in a post that you love, you can click on the "submit" button in someone's post and that will submit what they say as a quote to be "archived."

-Under the "quick links" on the nav bar, you'll see a "who's online" which is only for members and staff to see and a "top posters". This link lists the top 25 posts of the last: 7 hours, 7 days, 28 days, last month and overall.

-When you make your siggy, there is an option to upload a siggy pic right there.You're more than welcome to use a different place to link your pic from -- photobucket, Kodak Easy Share, Snapfish, etc. But if you don't an account like that, then you can upload it here. When you make your siggy, it needs to say within the 400 x 400 pixels guidelines. That includes all text and images. If you use Firefox, you can download the MeasureIt (http://www.kevinfreitas.net/extensions/measureit/). This is an extension that lets you "pull" out a ruler that measures width an height in pixels. This way you can be sure to be with in the siggy limits.

-We are allowing a total of 6 pictures that can be attached to a post. We just ask that you don't go overboard. ;)

-In your welcome header, it shows you how many unread posts there have been since your last visit also.

-And last, for now, you can see all the members that have visited the site today under the "What's Going On" box on the home page.

-NEW AS OF 2/5/07:
--You can now access the smilies from the QuickReply box

--There is a navigation bar on the left with some of the things from your UserCP on it: Edit Sig, Edit Av, List Subscriptions (threads you are subscribed to), New Posts & Who's Online

-NEW AS OF 2/6/07:
--Jo has added a Blog Forum!! (http://spiffymoms.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=&f=41) Want your own Blog? To get a blog, check out this thread (http://spiffymoms.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2925#post2925).

--Tell us your MySpace ID. Under UserCP, go to "Edit Profile" and the newest field is to enter your MySpace ID. Once you enter this, it will also show up under your avatar in all your posts.


We are definitely planning on adding and fine-tuning some things. Looking into a photo gallery, blogs, possible arcade, etc. More will happen as we see how the community builds. :D

Brooke I noticed most of those things :thumbsup The site looks wonderful and I can't wait to see what else you do with it. I know I already said it but I really love how you set up the avatars to change :D Looking forward to seeing what other ones there are. I am counting on Des to have a new one by the end of the night LOL
